Regionalism won't save SE either, it didn't save u ages ago, it won't save u now.
Same way the north has cabals, the south also has cabals, why blame the north if ur leaders that u elect can't set things right?

mokwechineme:
thats how gullible u re. I guess u re from the southwest and perhaos one of the lucky ones by family inheritance or association. Southwest currently is the home of poverty. I have visited many villages in southwest and the stories are the same. The only places working in southwest are just the state capitals but outside the capitals are stories of depreciation and hunger. Why? because the people there are majorly conditioned to the patronages of their leaders and government unlike the South easterners who dont wait for government for survival..
Try to visit villages in southwest and see things for urself if u re not actually leaving in deceit.

JagabanB:
I am not from South West and I know South East so well.
Pôverty is the reason South Easterners are always migrating.
U all talk like u come from a successful and prosperous region, shût it.
U all said exactly same thing like this about the north simply because the president as at then is a northerner, today u have moved all those statistics to the west.
The South Eastern villages are so póór that food is a highly valued commodity.
The nwa boys that come to various towns all come from ur villages and they cañ't speak good English, don't know nice furnitures, basic life is alien to them and somehow u all come online to talk like u all come from a prosperous zone.

mrvitalis:
Which is easier and more achievable

1) Nigerians coming together to achieve something

2) people of the same tribe coming together to achieve something?


You think Tinubu could have won election to rule South West region?

Or you think hope would have been governor?

JagabanB:
The question I keep asking most of you is this.
The governors and Local government chairmen of your state, are they not from your tribe?
What have they achieved?
U all think it's about the system, the problem is not the system but the people.
U can change the system and still face same problem.

mrvitalis:
People are never the problem, no group of people in the history of mankind hace ever decided to be good or bad... Never system and consequences makes them behave how they behave

People are loyal to were they derive power from... If people vote you in you would want to work for them... But if you got to power even against the people's wish you would want to be loyal to those who gave you power... And they might not be your people even


The problem is undew Influence the federal government have in their election

Take imo state, they voted one person another is ruling the impact of that would take 30 years to remove... Take bayelsa they elected another court placed another ... This is just court ooh

If we have regional government were each region conduct their elections themselves have their own judicial system... Each region is political equal

Them people can easily come together and remove bad leaders if one succeed the other 6 to 10 regions would learn and do same

JagabanB:
What about Ikpeazu, court placed him there?
Same court placed Peter Obi in power.
Since the court is against the people's will, same court placed Peter Obi in power.
What makes u think u are the one that will place people in power in ur region?
Nigèria practiced regionalism before, did it transform the country?
Rather, it brewed tension.

mrvitalis:
Ikpazu was voted out after first term in office
Court was manipulated to give him victory ... The story of how Abia chief judge disappeared is on google

Obi is one of the few cases... Because something fails 90% of the time doesn't mean it won't get it right 10%

Nigeria practiced regional system but not the regional system that was recommended for her... 10 regions were recommended only 3 we're practiced and 4 later

But you and no one can deny we made far more program under regional government that we have had under democratic rule

That's a fact no one can take

Regional government is not perfect but it's miles ahead better than this

There would not be Fulani terror under regional government

There won't be igbos want to take our land under regional government

There won't be cry for our oil under regional government

There won't be one inec under regional government

I dare you name one indigenous country not settler country that is made of up more than 10 tribes that practice our system of unitary system that is developing... I dare you name one

JagabanB:
I don't really focus on system of government that is really different from ours so I can't mention a country.
From what I know, same leaders will lead regional government.
Will it exposure certain faults in the north?
Of course it will, on paper will it help foster growth?
Of course it will.
Realistically, is it the north that's stopping it?
The answer is no!!!
NW and NE and some part of NC can't hold SS, SE, SW and the other part of NC to ransom.
NE and NW are on a United front, how is the south?
U can't just blame the north for everything.
Every state has 3 senators to push for this.
This agenda haven't been pushed by the representatives yet, so why call out the north about it?

mrvitalis:
I don't know of your region... But my South East region after the war North made sure they placed igbos loyal to them and that has affected us till date because most Igbo leaders derive their power from North.

Reason their is a wide gap between igbos leaders and the people


Nigeria is an absolutely devils mix of different people region government with 10 regions as recommended by Wilinks in 1958 is the way to go

Let each region be independent pay a tax to the federal government... Let each region police themselves

So that if I come to Yoruba region I know I am a stranger can only be a stranger simple
